- UV Intensity Monitor w/ CoolTouch Kit
The UV sensor is designed to detect a change in the UVT (Ultra Violet Transmittance) in the water. This will help make sure the UV is providing the necessary UV dose to inactivate the bacteria in the water.Note: If the UVT of the water falls below 75% that will send the system into alarm and "tripping" the solenoid valve stopping the flow of water to the house.
The Cool Touch fan significantly reduces the water temperature without wasting any water. This will help reduce alarms for water "over heating" and triggering the sensor. Recommend in situations where water is not being used on a regular basis.

UV light penetrates and permanently alters the DNA of the microorganisms in a process called thymine dimerization. The microorganisms are inactivated and rendered unable to reproduce or infect. Analogy: a broken zipper.

Very pleased!
I've been using the Pelican Shower Filter for about a week now, and I can clearly see, feel and smell the difference. My skin and hair is softer, feels much less dry. Great pressure from the shower head when I use very gentle running water for the shower!!! I was so surprised! Also, you can easily switch it between 2 and 2.5 gallons per minute, so you have even more control over how much water you use! I installed it easily. Happy as can be, as the water in my apartment comes from a lake near a nuclear power center, and this filter actually makes a difference. I've tried others but none were this noticeable of a difference.

Amazing!
Purchased Jan. 2011. The water in our town is hyperchlorinated. This system produces the most wonderful water for drinking, bathing and household use. Our friends are surprised when they drink it. Reordering supplies is simple and delivery is fast. The simple instructions make the system easy to maintain.

Great Water Texture
Water texture is awesome using Pelican Softeners for Well Water... Recommend you use flex piping vs PVC... You can save up to an hour installing the system especially in tight spaces.

AWESOME
I love my Pelican Combo Series! In the five years that I've had my water system , I have never tasted or smelled chlorine in my water. My skin is soft and never dry or itchy. I would recommend this water system to anyone wanting to improve their water!

Best Water in TOWN
We have very poor quality of water in our part of Ohio. After having several National Brand name water firms test the water and give quotes I started studying how to improve our water. PELICAN was and is the answer. The most cost affective,easy to maintain system available. It was very easy to install. If you need to have a plumber do the install it should not be too costly.
My neighbors cost fill the water jugs at my house. Our appliances work better, clothes cleaner, bathing is better and the taste is better then bottled H2O...
IF YOU WANT THE BEST IT PELICAN !

The Works
We needed the works, Sulfur removal system, Sediment filter, Carbon filter, and Salt-Free softener; we purchased the UV Disinfectant sytem too. We have great clean fresh water at our house and the barn. We are quite happy with the system and we are sure our water is safe to drink.

Excellent Product and Service
I have called Pelican a couple of times and always get a representative who has knowledge about products, services, and processes. Always a great experience. Also, the product is the best out there! My extended family has the PC 600 and PC 1000 and I just referred a friend who purchased one a couple of weeks ago. Keep up the great work!

Excellent Product
I purchased the carbon filter and water softener combo for my new home in May of 2015. It's been a great investment. The water is clean and softer and I've had no loss of water pressure at all. I started shopping these systems back in late 2014 and had numerous discussions with Matt who kept in touch and didn't pressure me at all. Once I closed on my house, I bought it and had a local plumber install it. I am very pleased with it and would recommend this product to anyone!
Thank you very much Matt!!!

Great Purchase
I purchased the Pelican Shower Filter on line and in a few short days I received it. The installation was very simple and took about 5 minutes or less to install. Both my wife and I noticed a difference after the first shower. My wife commented that her hair was softer and I noticed that my skin felt and looked better.

Media replacement assistance
I was in the process of replacing my carbon media on a Sunday. And I noticed that the paper instructions that were included did not correspond with the verbiage and the figure #5. So I called customer service on Sunday and they were available. The agent that I talked to was extremely nice, professional and very helpful. So far, so good... A suggestion would be to have a You tube video available on their website for future instructions.

Outstanding Service!
I originally inquired by phone and got professional service in helping me order the exact filters I needed/wanted. After placing the order for the filters (4). they came in short order. I installed the new filtering system and they work like a charm. I'm glad to find a company that represents a true product and a product that does what it is supposed to do. I highly this company and the products they sell

| Q. What does the Pro model have that the Max or Plus models do not? |
When you purchase a Pro model UV system, you are getting the same great UV disinfection the normal model has, but with added peace of mind and security. All Plus models include the lamp-age display and alarm system w/reset button. They also include a UV intensity monitor, which is used to keep a close eye on the amount of UV you are getting into your water.
The UV Intensity Monitor is required in some states when installing a UV (contact your water company or building inspector) and will ensure that you are getting proper disinfection. If the UV intensity begins to drop, then you know its time to clean the sleeve or replace the lamp. Another added safety feature is NSF certification that this UV system will guarantee you proper UV disinfection by use of a flow restrictor preventing you from pushing too much water through the system. This NSF certification will ensure the required 40m/J level of UV for complete disinfection of your water. CoolTouch may be required for your installation.
|
| Q. What is a CoolTouch and why would I need it? |
A CoolTouch system is needed for all UV systems that have UV intensity monitors where water is not in use 24/7. The CoolTouch will move water through the UV chamber to reduce the temperature of the water. If the water is allowed to get too warm, the UV intensity monitor will show that the UV intensity is too low and set off an alarm. This CoolTouch helps to prevent that alarm from going off and also keeps the water cool inside the chamber. Since the UV lamp is always on, if water is not in use all the time, adding this is a requirement.
|
| Q. Is there a lot of maintenance required with a UV system? |
All you have to do is periodically clean the lamp sleeve and replace your lamp once every 2 years - simple processes you can complete in minutes. For ease of handling the lamp and protective quartz sleeve are designed as one component, but can be replaced separately. No tools are required for maintenance.
|
| Q. What type of warranty does the Viqua UV Max Systems come with? |
For full warranty information click here.
|
| Q. Why is it recommend to pre-treat the water before installing a Viqua UV Max System? |
A 5-micron sediment pre-filter is recommend to remove dirt and debris. The reason for this pretreatment is the quality of the water can not only affect the dosage of UV disinfection the system provides, it may also cause premature "sleeve fouling" which will require the sleeve to be cleaned more often, and may also damage the UV sleeve.
|
| Q. What is a CoolTouch Kit? |
The Cool Touch kit is a feature that will release hot water from the UV chamber before the water inside the chamber reaches a temperature in which the UV Intensity Alarm is tripped. This Kit is required for models that include a UV Intensity Monitor.
|
| Q. What makes the Viqua UV Max light more effective than other on the market? |
The UV light is generated from a low-pressure, high-output lamp new to the residential and commercial UV market. These lamps provide a higher intensity of UV light making it possible to treat a given volume of water with smaller, more efficient units.
